Modeling Society Based on Historical Narratives

Historians sometimes refer to Macedonian society as 'Homeric', suggesting that it embodies Homeric values. The story of an imitative society from a Star Trek episode is reminiscent, where a society modeled itself after a historical Earth book on gangster wars in Chicago, creating a society reflecting those values. This narrative prompts the imagination of Macedonian society being molded by a single book if it were based on the values of a people from the late Bronze Age when the Trojan war was believed to have taken place.
